It's about to be the end of the world, or . . the beginning of the new one. The one that Tao creates. Last issue Max gave Tao what he wanted by whispering the Creation Equation into his ear. But Ladytron made a little gamble. 'When Max was whispering the secret formula to you, I pirated it. Picked up what he said on my directional mike. And beamed it into all our ears. So yer a god, huh? Welcome to the friggin' club!' Everyone that's gathered her to fight Tao has been given a piece of the creation equation. But Tao has been doing this longer than any of them . . he's more experienced. So he takes them all to the Hallow Realm. It's kind of a psychic dimension . . a dimension of the mind, the soul. There he gives each of his enemies their worst fears and hatreds to fight. Each time one of them loses, he gathers up their power making him stronger, and intensifying his focus on the others. The only ones to slip under the radar here are Void, and Susanna Faraday . . Max's wife. She also has a bit of the creation power. Anyways, the 2 of them watch what's going on and try to find the pattern. For the most part, it all seems to be about tearing apart families and loved ones. They think it may have to do with the fact that he was a clone . . a genetic experiment. He never had parents or a family. And then Susanne is talking about her work with special needs children, and it hits here. She knows what this is all about and how to beat him. The issue ends with Void and Susanne confronting Tao. He thinks he's just going to snatch the Creation Energy from them, but . . the girls have a different idea. 'We know what you are. You claim you want to tear our world down. You poor, poor man. We're about to tear down yours.' It's about time they took this guy down a peg. Christos Gage is doing a great job with this book. And overall I think the guy has dramatically improved since entering into this profession. Next issue, hopefully, he'll wrap up this story-line and we can move on to the WildCATS figuring out what to do about the scorched Earth. Also fantastic art by Shawn Moll. Not to mention the great covers by Ryan Sook. I really like this book and these characters. I'm glad they've made such a strong come-back.
